Dropped 6 minutes after the end of the debate, lmfao what a burn

Every last vote helps. Glad she's using her platform to stand up for reproductive rights.

Good choice!

Honestly seemed like she wasn't going to for a minute there, after the radio silence on the Trump AI and hanging with Trump supporters.

So, thank goodness, we could use every ounce of help we can get here to destroy this orange menace.

She either endorsed Democrats or pushed voter registration since 2018 either in late September or early October. This was the earliest she has ever injected her opinion to my knowledge.

There wasn't really any doubt, but she wanted to have positive points for her argument, not let people say she was just mad about the AI exploitation of her image. I'm sure she's had most of that letter ready to go for weeks, but coming now, she can underline the contrast between Calm and Chaos and if you watched the debate you get it, and if you didn't, you'll see it in the references on the news.

She definitely asked the Harris campaign for the most effective moment. This was it.

This was likely prepared well before the debate, and timed to reach a large audience.

It was mostly a joke, as in I can't picture Taylor being a potential Trump supporter who went Harris cause of the debate
